With the paranoid delusionals of the 911 cult, the "My best mates a Reptillian" UFO Alien forum and the totally barnpot Paranormal forum does ATS really need any help being discredited?

Exactely!
These kind of users are, oftenly, 14 years old kids that don't have anything to do but piss people off with hoaxes. And sometimes organized groups do it too.
It's their fun, what can we do?

I disagree with what both of you guys have said. Quantity can exist with quality.
16.2% of our membership consists of those under the age of 18. And I can list countless members, who are under 18, who are some of our best contributors.
We are talking about the squeaky wheel here. And what are we doing? Giving him the grease. Rather than talking about the countless members who work endlessly to contribute, we prefer to talk about the "troll" who wants to stir trouble. If there were more trolls on ATS than contributing members, none of us would be here. If we were ridden with trolls and the quality of our board was diminishing, would we really be seeing the success that we are?
This is nothing more than giving the squeaky wheel the grease.
